12 Days of Gift Guidemas - Guides for the World Traveler on Your List Part 1

On the Fourth day of Gift Guidemas Let's Get Going Gave To Me

In the last few years there's been a major shift in gift giving. Instead of waking up on Christmas morning with a gift all wrapped up in tinsel under the tree, we've now come to expect "experience gifts". You know the type - the going to new exotic places or trying new restaurants kind of gift. But let's be real, that costs A LOT of money. So if you don't have the guap to send someone on the trip of their dreams you might as well give them the gear of their dream so they can travel in style once the time comes.

Now this list is super (or as the Germans would say Uber) specific. It's for that person in your life who you are planning on throwing a going away party for because they're probably moving to Berlin. Curated by self-described Germanophile Corrine, this gift guide will knock your Germanophile's lederhosen off.
